Coffee Panna Cotta and cinnamon is a wonderful dessert idea for the holidays.
Only a few ingredients and few steps are needed to whip up … This quick dessert doesn’t even need cooking!
Its soft and supple texture is usually best accompanied by a rich dark chocolate-based sauce.
But my recipe coffee panna cotta calls for a sprinkling of cinnamon instead of chocolate, enhancing the flavor of the coffee panna cotta.
The addition of cinnamon reminds me so much of my grandmother, who used to put it in my grandfather’s coffee in addition to sugar, saying that this spice together with coffee has beneficial properties like eternal youth, and she was not completely wrong, because this combination increases the consumption of fat and accelerates the metabolism.
Grandmothers have always been our source of wisdom, always ready to dispense their very useful life advice to deal with all the small inconveniences that occur every day.
